It's Going to be a Party!

Hey everyone! Just popped in to let you know about an upcoming party, hosted by Dawn at Creative Cain Cabin. Dawn has become one of my special "Bloggy Friends," and is such a sweetheart. I don't know if this is her first "Linky Party," but it's the first one I've known about. I know it's going to be so much fun, so read all about it below. I hope to see you there!

You are invited

The "Cabin" is hosting a Christmas Decorating Party on a Budget.

Starting Monday the 19th, and one every Monday until

Christmas.

It will be a Linky Party, to show off how you are decorating for Christmas on a budget.

This is a great way to get new ideas, and meet new friends.

Maybe that means thrifting for items, reusing what you already have,

upcycling things, or just getting creative without breaking the bank.

I will feature the top three the following week.

So get decorating.

Hope to see you all there!

If you will be attending please let me know and pass the party info on to all your friends:)

And just what's been going on here at An Oasis in the Desert you might ask? I've been busy, busy getting my home all decked out for Christmas. I got an earlier start this year, because I'm not hosting Thanksgiving here this time. My house has been and still is a disaster......oh my! I always think I can whip it all out and get it all up much faster than I actually do. Reality check -- I'm getting older, move slower, & scurrying up and down the ladder -- well, there is no "scurrying" going on! I'm having a great time, though, and hope to have some things to share soon. And just because I adore all of you and know what a curious bunch you are, I'm sharing just a couple of "sneaky peeks" to build the excitement -- as if!
